Bank of England Notes.

In recent communication written
from Washington, ID. c., occurs the
following. We have not had time to
verify its correctness; but the facts
given, if correct, are important. The
author says: People in general flatter
themselves with the belief that Bank
of England notes are a kind of infalli-
BILE currency, and that for every five
pound note there are at least five gold
sovereigns in the vaults of that finan-
cial institution. No greater fallacy
ever existed. The Bank of England
has an issue of is million pounds
sterling, or about 70 millions of U. S.
dollars, in legal tender notes, in no
way distinguishable from the rest,
behind which there is not an ounce of
gold or silver security whatever.
In 1911, Bank OF England notes
were at discount of 241a per cent.
in 1872, at 80 per cent. in Septem-
ber, and up to December, 1912, at38R
in 1913 at 36.1 per cent. in 1913, in
the month of December they reached
the highest point of discount, of Al per
cent.
The Bank of England suspended
specie payments in December, 1897,
and resumed only in May, 1922, a
period of twenty-four years and six
months, while in the United States
the banks suspended specie payments
in May, 1861, but resumed in January,
1879, period of only seventeen years
and eight months.
Even during that whole period the
United States Treasury never sus-
pended specie payments for its inter-
est on its bonds; that much cannot be
said in favor of Great Britain.
Since that time, on three different
occasions since the act of August 81,
1874, which compels the Bank of
England to purchase all the gold Of
fered, there has been such a run upon
the Treasury that the Chancellers of
the Exchequer of England have, in
their plenary power, interfered to help
the Bank of England and save it from
commercial dishonor, given it author
ity to issue legal tender notes without
any metallic security whatever. This
was done ON the 25th of October, 1847,
on the 18th of November, 1857, and
upon the 11th of May, 1866, upon the
panic in England caused by the fail
ure of Overend, Gurney Il Co., Bank
ers. And upon such security is based
the gold standard of England. In
Germany the gold standard was inau-
gurated by law in 1871, in fact in 1873.
On September LIST, 1880, the German
Reichsbank, which is compelled
by law to purchase all the gold offered
~ lr, Gr,a 1rrndrnh
grammes pure gold, payable in bank
notes of the Imperial Bank, sus-
pended specie payment on the notes
thus exchanged for gold.-[Banker's
